How to control draft_shapestring_to_sketch ↓

AI agents use draft_shapestring_to_sketch to create or update resources in FreeCAD Robust MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your FreeCAD Robust MCP Server environment.

Medium Risk

The tool creates or converts data into a sketch object, which is a reversible write operation in FreeCAD's data model. No description provided, which lowers confidence slightly, but context from sibling sketch manipulation tools and the naming pattern strongly suggest a Write operation rather than Read or Execute.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'draft_shapestring_to_sketch' indicates conversion from a draft shape string representation to a sketch object; the 'to_sketch' suffix suggests creation or modification of sketch geometry.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access draft_shapestring_to_sketch gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and FreeCAD Robust MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for draft_shapestring_to_sketch:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "draft_shapestring_to_sketch": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "draft_shapestring_to_sketch_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

draft_shapestring_to_sketch stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
